INQUIRE
Rare copy of “PATEK PHILIPPE; Les Maitres de l’ Horlogerie Genevoise” by Louis Matthey, printed in Geneva, Switzerland in the early 1950’s. Text in French with beautiful illustrations of dozens of wrist and pocket watch references including the famed reference 1518 chronograph, 1526 triple calendar, 1436 split second chrono and several others. Some pages featuring ladies time pieces have been omitted with the exception of a beautiful color printing of a piece in white metal encrusted in diamonds and sapphires.
Some material missing from outer cover as seen in photos. Outer cover yellowed with moderate wear. Inner pages very well preserved. Pencil marks in red on two pages. Overall a very good copy of a rare and valuable Patek Philippe reference work.
